#citra terranova

[air-of-the-waterfall]

Citra's middle name is Querida. I don't speak Spanish, but I'm pretty sure "querida" means "darling."

Greyson's middle name is TIMOTHY, which apparently means "God's honor," "honored by God," "honoring God," etc. which... lmfao I love him so much.

Rowan's is Daniel, which means "God is my judge."

So, we have: Citra "everyone's angel to protect at all costs" Terranova, Greyson "the Thunderhead's blatant favouritism" Tolliver, and Rowan "only God can judge me" Damisch.

Sounds about right

AOAS is actually so weird out of context. The main baddie is literally from mars, he killed an entire planet, was beheaded, and then started wearing one of the MC’s best friend’s body like the other 17% of the headless horseman for the ~drama~. One of the main driving plot points of the first book is Mars Man kidnapping Basically The President’s daughter and forcing the MC to babysit her against his will while he studies to get his license to kill. My man floods Basically NATO with mind-controlled sharks and yells “lol nope, u thought” while watching world leaders get eaten from a helicopter. The B-plot is New Jesus trying to navigate the intricacies of religion and developing a dysfunctional-ass found family that consists of his tour manager, a stubborn but devout theatre kid, a jean-cloaked ex-killer, and Robot God. He falls in love with a sexy sea captain who gets possessed by Robot God bc it’s in love. There’s deep talks about nature and morality of humanity. The two MC’s bang while dying of hypothermia while sinking to the bottom of the ocean. This isn’t even half of it.

Scythehood gave Citra empathy and I eat that shit up entirely everytime I think about it: an essay

One of the first things we learn about her in chapter one is that she's quick to anger. We also learn that she freezes up when she's scared, and shuts down completely. These two are a deadly combination meaning that if's shes afraid of losing an argument, she'll just shut the other person down completely instead of admitting fault.

She literally pushes a girl under a moving truck and just. lets her live with that. She actually killed someone and got them ridiculed for like, ever, and said nothing about it and covered it up completely. I don't even remember her actually saying she was sorry about it, even years later, when she actually had to apologize to the girl. This girl does not give a shit about anything!!!

Yet when she's an apprentice and a scythe, she shows people more compassion than she knows how to give. She falls hideously under her quota just to give people their last decision in their death. She bends rules and makes her life all the more difficult because it weighs on her that their life is ending because of her and she does her best to accommodate. In conclusion, she's my precious little meow meow and i love her so goddamn much you wouldn't believe

ref sheets for citra and rowan! I know that their outfits change periodically throughout the books, so I just tried to keep this ref sheet as their most iconic, general appearance. That's also what I'll be doing for most characters moving forward.

Anyways, the next batch of designs I plan on doing is Goddard's little group (as per request of @scottishgremlin, since they wanted to see scythe rand!)

Arc of a Scythe Incorrect quotes pt 3 Aka Me Seeing How Many Tags I Can Slap Onto a Single Post pt 3

Faraday: I have a new hoodie.

Curie: Wrong. WE have a new hoodie.

Citra: Why are your tongues purple?

Faraday: We had slushies. I had a blue one.

Curie: I had a red one.

Citra: Oh.

Citra: OH.

Rowan: You drank each other's slushies?

Citra: Ya'll always talk about E-boy this and E-girl that, but no one wants to talk about the E-conomy. Marican capitalism is a fundamentally flawed system-

Constantine: BEHOLD! The field in which I grow my f*cks! Lay thine eyes upon it and thou shalt see that it BARREN!

Mandela: If you got arrested, what would be the charges?

Citra: Theft.

Curie: Disturbing the peace.

Faraday: Aggravated assut.

Morrison: Arson

Rowan. All the above. In that order, probably.

Goddard: You know what? You're in timeout! GET ON TOP OF THE FRIDGE! GET UP THERE!!!

Rowan: *Climbing on top of the refrigerator* THIS HOUSE IS A F*CKING NIGHTMARE!!!!!

Greyson: *Alone in his room and talking to the Thunderhead* You are my da-ad! YOU'RE MY DAD! Boogy woogy-woogy!

Volta: Do not come over to my room. If the room is on fire, you may knock once, if I don't answer, assume I set the fire and I want to burn to death.

Greyson: No, this is not a mess. You know what I consider a mess?

Thunderhead: Your life?

Greyson: I- well, yes, but-

Scythe ocs Incorrect quotes!

Newton: Did you get the eggs like I asked?

Bly: Even better!

Newton: What the f*ck did you-

Bly: *Holds up chicken* Her name is Fluffy.

Bly: Honk.

Newton: WHAT?

Bly: HONK!

Newton: WHAT THE F*CK DOES HONK MEAN THIS TIME, YOU WHIMSICAL PIECE OF SH*T!!?

Please read this whole post, there’s no meme or catch to this, I’m not staying quiet on this.

this is the first post I’m making about Neal Shusterman’s recent actions - the second is about AI art usage, but this is so, so much more important.

Neal being complicit in the genocide that is occurring currently in Palestine and Gaza. Neal seems to have just gotten back from a book tour promoting a graphic novel he wrote, called Courage to Dream, which is about the Holocaust. He sent an email to everyone subscribed to his online newsletter.

Neal took this as an opportunity to state that he saw how “both sides” - both Israel and Palestinians - were doing things he did not condone, and that he would be remaining neutral.

Obviously Neal isn’t wrong in some of his wording, but what he’s fundamentally trying to say here is wrong and harmful. It doesn’t take someone who has lived through genocide to recognize that a genocide is happening. Genocide is a complex topic, but not in a “both sides should be shown kindness” way. It is complex in the fact that this has been going on for years, that history is repeating itself, and that people in positions of power are so easily falling for Zionist and colonialist propaganda because of their own bigotry and bias against those living in Palestine. How did you just go on tour promoting a book about the stories of people who were being targeted and killed in a genocide, and your first statement upon returning from that tour is to email all the subscribers of your newsletter that you’re “not qualified” to talk about genocide, and that you’re refusing to support the people being eradicated? Why did you write a book about genocide in the first place if you didn’t think you were qualified to talk about it? How do you write a whole graphic novel detailing the stories of people in what is the most known genocide in modern history and not see that Israel is trying to wipe Palestinians off the map?

Being opposed to genocide isn’t a simplistic opinion. It’s fucking common sense.

Scythe Characters As Weird Shit My Friends And I Say Because I Can

Curie, standing on a stepladder: You don't have to be straight, the clock has to be straight.

Citra: Well that's rude. The clock can be whatever it wants to be.

Rowan: Let the clock love who it wants to love!

Rand: I was just giving a detailed explanation of how you suck it.

Volta: I'm gonna crash this fucking car.

Chomsky: Sometimes you just gotta do it and see what happens.

Volta: You knew what would happen! It blew up!

Mentor! Faraday: She's attacking me!

Apprentice! Curie: I'm hugging you.

Rowan: Do-nut order donuts.

Citra: I hate you.

Goddard: My god, Xenocrates! There's a fuck you!

Tyger: Wow, my head really just flew across the room.

Rand: I'm taking your silence as a sign I should kill the child.

Rowan, to Citra: Did you die? Guess I'll die too.

Greyson, gesturing proudly at Jeri: Nonbinary noodle!

Faraday, in the middle of a thought: -ledge.

Munira: Ledge?

Faraday, nodding: Ledge.

end of scythe and early thunderhead quirks because i refuse to shut up

apparently every character is strong enough to carry every other character. like yeah i totally expected curie to be able to just, hoist citra everywhere but reading that citra CARRIED (not dragged) faraday (you know, a grown ass whole ass buff ass man) was a lil jarring. i know they’re all buff as shit but faraday has to be bulking i mean cmon

rowan is so emo oh my god

brahms sniffed the air when he realized someone was following him

neal has a personal vendetta against xenocrates cause WHY DOES HE FEEL THE NEED TO MENTION THAT HE CAN BARELY FIT INTO A CONFESSIONS CHAMBER

this one is from scythe but rowan knows what a tweaker is only because he was so depressed he got his nanites tweaked. he’s so emo and for what

[air-of-the-waterfall]

I'm rereading book one and I'm remembering how much I love every character in this series.

I love how everyone is so protective of Citra. Faraday as her mentor defending her at Conclave, then faking his own death to try and save her and Rowan. Rowan failing the tests to support her. Marie taking her in and cooking for her. Marie picking her up and carrying her out of the revival center when Citra's in too much pain, then calling in an international network of contacts to help her escape. The Thunderhead flying her out to the Chilargentine region as far away from Xenocrates as possible, talking to her, reassuring her as it brings her back to life. The Thunderhead orchestrating an entire plot with Greyson to save Citra from the explosion. Constantine heading an operation to catch her assailants. Possuelo looking out for her and being a father figure. Tenkamenin encouraging her research and giving her a place to stay. And then there's JERICO FREAKING SOBERANIS who would LITERALLY DIE A THOUSAND DEATHS for her.

The only non-villain character who doesn't seem to behave this way about Citra is Cirrus. Cirrus is just like "lol sorry I'm busy so you'll have to wait." (I won't go off on another tangent about Cirrus. I won't go off on another tangent about Cirrus.)

Through all of this, Citra is never a damsel in distress. She's an active and three-dimensional protagonist who has a kickass support system backing her up. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like it. As incredible as the worldbuilding in AOAS is, what really makes it so special is all these different relationships between its characters.
